You know, there are a lot of you old geezers that were there all along with this project from about 2002, and this wouldn't be the first time, you completely forgot what you participated in. This road work took a lot of local people participating, and supposedly the representatives, over time. Yes, that map may also be old but it describes the work that has been done, plus shows full extent by mileposts. Again, the project is very simple-minded so you can understand: two full lanes from Pahoa to Hilo, shoulder expansion from Hilo to Pahoa. There are other pages with the stop lights, starting with the one at Shower and all the way down the road to Pahoa. You may wallow in your drunken addiction to nostalgia and remember when you could once sail through from Pahoa to Hilo.
